    1st E30/BMW (89' 325i)- Light Mod/Build

    I finally decided that it was time for me to build/ own something different. After having 10 Honda's I wanted to give the E30 chassis a try. I respect all car and builds regarless of the make, but for me it was really hard to change over considering all my work and reaseach has gone into Hondas for the past 5 years. Since owning this car I have fell in love with it and have some plans for the future.

    -Intake
    -Possibly a Header
    -3.73 LSD or 4.10 LSD
    -GC springs
    -Koni Shocks
    -Diamond racing/some low offset wheel

    This is not going to be my race car or anything. Just a reliable DD that will get a fair amount of attention. I have yet to own a RWD chassis and it is really starting to grow on me.

    E30's current mods are:

    -Schwarz Black, with Indigo Blue sport interior
    -Bilstein HD Sport shocks
    -E30 M3 springs
    -2.93 LSD
    -Stromung cat-back exhaust
    -IS Front and rear lips
    -Euro bumper trim
    -Euro grills
    -Smoked turn signals
    -Clutch stop
    -M-color stitched shift/ebrake boots

    I would appreciate any advice and help considering I am very new to this. I will have more pictures after I replace my driveshaft and drive it more.

    Not a fan of the stuffed animal hangin' off the front. It needs to be put on a Japanese car. I think a grenade would be more fitting hanging off the front of a BMW
    Other than that, I like your ride

      Toss the domo on the rear hook, sticking out of the rear apron. Then your car will be fine.

          Also, RWD is the only way to go, unless you can afford to service AWD.

            It's all preference. I'm not bias, as long as I get traction I can careless where the drive wheels are located.

                    No need to be a jerk about it. I understand you guys/girls don't like Hondas, but I do so...

                      why?
                      Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
